在那座殿堂中,水界之主伐楼那亲自端坐,身旁侍立伐楼尼。其身披镶嵌璀璨宝珠的天衣,复以神圣饰物庄严点缀——俨然是主宰之辉与秩序之威的化身。
नारद उवाच
The verse underscores the idea that true sovereignty is not merely display but ordered majesty: Varuṇa, emblematic of cosmic and moral governance, appears in a setting of disciplined grandeur, suggesting that power is ideally aligned with order (ṛta/dharma) and proper conduct.
Nārada is describing the extraordinary assembly hall, portraying it as so wondrous that even deities are present there. Here he notes Varuṇa seated within, attended by Vāruṇī, resplendent in celestial attire and ornaments.
